Oil Change Track/Daily

I'm looking to do an oil change for the start of track day season as is what I always do. In the past I've used 5W-30 , but I couldn't find a definite answer for recommended mixed used oils. I live in Vancouver, so pretty mild climate. Typically go to 3-4 track days over the summer, and the rest of the time is for pleasure drives.

This is for OG M2.

Thanks for your help.

Why wouldn't you use the recommended oil?

Absolutely. Stick to the factory oil thickness. 3-4 track days for a full synthetic oil is no problem.
